LOS ANGELES – In the sold-out STAPLES CENTER at Hell in a Cell, Divas Champion Charlotte reigned supreme over former titleholder Nikki Bella, ending a hard-fought showdown at WWE Hell in a Cell by making her tap-out to the Figure Eight Leg Lock.
With the Divas Revolution spinning out of control in recent weeks, a true winner would be assured on the award-winning WWE Network pay-per-view – as Charlotte would battle the longest reigning Divas Champion of all-time with no one allowed at ringside, assuring there would be no interference.
From the opening bell, Nikki showed ruthless aggression to be sure, punishing the titleholder’s knee throughout the contest. But no matter how much she suffered, Charlotte would not give in and rallied back with the heart of a true champion. Ironically, Nikki soon injuredher knee. And after an incredible maneuver in which the daughter of Ric Flair flipped over her No. 1 contender on the top rope and brought her opponent crashing down to the canvas, the tide truly started to turn. And after battling back from Nikki’s extremely fierce attack outside the ring, Charlotte escaped her adversary’s pinfall attempt and made her tap-out to the Figure Eight Leg Lock.
Charlotte triumphed in her rematch against Nikki and she did it with Flair. Still, never underestimate Team Bellas’ collective ability to get right back in the fight. Then again, with so many elite Divas looking to steal the limelight week after week, one has to wonder who will challenge Charlotte next.
